Thinking out loud, am I better off getting a used L86 (6.2L) when I am ready for a rebuild, rebuilding my 5.3, or just going straight to Hawks for an LT1 drivetrain?
The 6.2 is obviously going to provide more power but I need to acquire one I'm thinking the cost to get one will probably offset the cost to beef up the 5.3 since its in the truck already. (Yes I know, the 6L80 will need its own beefing up)
I did see some decent pricing on LT1 drivetrains at Hawks. Not sure I want my daily to have a 6 speed manual either (although I have seen a few conversions) cause none of the LT1s for sale come with the 10 speed.
I can't even imagine the cost of an Esky V drivetrain would cost.
